Beach overall scores
White River beach (Cyprus) is located outside the Agios Georgios Pegeias settlement, which may cause some difficulties for travelers who stay far from the coast. However, the remoteness from the village is not always a bad thing. Lovers of quiet rest know, the farther the beach, the fewer crowds.
The beach stretches on the sunny coast and the easiest way to get to the beach is by car or bike. If you don't have this option, then the second best solution is to use the taxi, which can drive you directly to the beach. The only problem, if your stay is far away it can be quite expensive. There is also a possibility of use of public transport, but in this case you need to check the correct route to the White River beach with the locals. Take into account that the bus stop is usually in some distance., but accessing the beach requires traversing some distance on foot. While driving or cycling are the most convenient options for reaching the start point of trail, these methods may not be feasible for everyone. Alternatively, a taxi can be used to drive directly to the location. Public transportation is another option, but it's important to confirm the correct route with locals beforehand as the bus stop may be located at some distance.

"The view from the drive past the beach is absolutely stunning, but it's important to note that the road leading there is quite rough and bumpy. However, we were able to make the journey in our WV Golf without any issues. It's no surprise that there are plenty of rental cars making the trip, as the beach is definitely worth the effort."

"This beach is an absolute must-see! The view is simply breathtaking and the journey down to the shore is a bit more exciting than your average drive. Once you've parked at the top, the scramble down is a breeze. As you make your way down, you'll spot some goats perched up high alongside the cliffs, their bells ringing in the distance. And don't forget to come back for the fi..."

Is the beach good for sunbathing?
White River beach (Cyprus) is not fully equipped for sunbathing. However, if you are not picky and are willing to spread out on a towel, you can sunbathe here as well. The natural shade will allow you to hide from the scorching sun in the peak of its activity. Well, the photos of our visitors will be the best proof of that, all the available photos of the beach are above.This beach is poorly suitable for sunbathing. First of all White River beach (Cyprus) is completely lacking in comfortable sunbathe facilities. There are no sun loungers and umbrellas, this is usually not a problem for an unsophisticated tourist who can relax on a towel, but in this case the rest can be very uncomfortable due to pebbles.Lying on it is possible, but is far from comfortable. In addition there is a lack of natural shade, which leaves you alone with the summer sun. So our recommendation is that you can sunbathe comfortably on the White River beach for a short time, and not at the peak of sunbathing. If you want to explore the photos of this beach - they are above on the page.
